8.1 OPERATIONAL SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL
PROTECTION
• The servicing and inspection operations contained in this
chapter must be performed in accordance with the intervals
indicated in the servicing checklists.
• Any modification to the Reach Truck assemblies, in particular
the safety mechanisms, is prohibited. The operational
speeds of the Reach Truck must not be changed under any
circumstances.
• Only original spare parts have been certified by our quality
assurance department. To ensure safe and reliable operation
of the Reach Truck, use only the manufacturer’s spare parts.
Used parts, oils and fuels must be disposed of in accordance
with the relevant environmental protection regulations. For oil
changes, contact the manufacturer’s specialist department.
• Upon completion of inspection and servicing, carry out the
activities listed in the “Recommissioning ” section.
8.2 MAINTENANCE SAFETY REGULATIONS
MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL:
Reach Trucks must only be serviced and maintained by the
manufacturer’s trained personnel.
The manufacturer’s service department has field technicians
specially trained for these tasks. We therefore recommend a
maintenance contract with the manufacturer’s local service center.
LIFTING AND JACKING UP:
When a Reach Truck is to be lifted, the lifting gear must only be
secured to the points specially provided for this purpose.
When jacking up the Reach Truck, take appropriate measures
to prevent the Reach Truck from slipping or tipping over (e.g.
wedges, wooden blocks).
You may only work underneath a raised load handler if it is
supported by a sufficiently strong chain.
CLEANING:
Do not use flammable liquids to clean the Reach Truck. Prior to
cleaning, all safety measures required to prevent sparking (e.g.
through short circuits) must be taken. For battery-operated Reach
Trucks, the battery connector must be removed.
Only weak suction or compressed air and non-conductive
antistatic brushes may be used for cleaning electric or electronic
assemblies.
If the Reach Truck is to be cleaned with a water jet or a high-
pressure cleaner, all electrical and electronic components must be
carefully covered beforehand as moisture can cause malfunctions.
After cleaning the Reach Truck, carry out the activities detailed in
the “Recommissioning” section.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:
Only suitably trained personnel may operate on the Reach Truck’s
electrical system.
Before working on the electrical system, take all precautionary
measures to avoid – electric shocks.
For battery-operated Reach Trucks, also de-energise the Reach
Truck by removing the battery connector.
WELDING:
To avoid damaging electric or electronic components, remove
these from the Reach Truck before performing welding operations.
SETTINGS:
When repairing or replacing electric or electronic components or
assemblies, always note the Reach Truck-specific settings.
TIRES
The quality of tires affects the stability and performance of
the Reach Truck. When replacing factory fitted tires only use
original manufacturer’s spare parts, as otherwise the data plate
specifications will not be kept.
When changing wheels and tires, ensure that the Reach Truck
does not slew (e.g. when replacing wheels always left and right
simultaneously).
